Much of the country was left in dismay at the news. We’ve already got enough on our political plate to worry about. To know that we’ll be going to vote again in a couple of months is a lot to process.

However, one silver lining out of all of this mess is that the country is calling for a new leader to take the spot and that man is Louis Theroux. Yes, the UK’s most loved documentary maker has found himself at the centre of an online petition campaigning for him to be the next British PM.

Obviously this is all very tongue in cheek, but it’s nice to dream right? The Change.org campaign, launched by Konbini, says:

Since the EU referendum in Britain, politicians, experts and those with the country in their hands have failed to show they are capable of leading the nation during this complex time.

We call on the government to accept that the only right thing to do is appoint presenter, documentary maker and national treasure Louis Theroux as the next prime minister.

As one of the most understanding, smart and trusted men in the UK, Mr Theroux (probably) has more skills to work out what is best for post-Brexit Britain than May, Farage and Corbyn combined. And if he fails, at least he can make a bloody good film about it (or become leader of the opposition and fire some pretty great questions around the Houses of Parliament).
